Numbers 23
1 Then said Balaam unto Balak: Build me here seven altars, —and prepare me here, seven bullocks and seven rams.
Kinuna ni Balaam kenni Balak, “Mangibangonka iti pito nga altar ditoy para kaniak ken mangisaganaka iti pito a toro a baka ken pito a kalakian a karnero.”
2 And Balak did as Balaam had spoken, —and Balak and Balaam caused to ascend a bullock and a ram on each altar.
Inaramid ngarud ni Balak kas kiniddaw ni Balaam. Ket nangidatonda a dua iti maysa a baka ken maysa a karnero iti rabaw ti tunggal altar.
3 Then said Balaam unto Balak: Station thyself by thine ascending-sacrifice, and let me go my way—peradventure Yahweh may come and meet me, and what thing soever he may show me, I will tell thee. So he went his way to a bare height.
Kalpasanna, kinuna ni Balaam kenni Balak, “Agtakderka iti abay ti datonmo a maipuor ta mapanakon. Nalabit nga umaynak saraken ni Yahweh. Ibagakto kenka ti aniaman nga ipakitana kaniak.” Isu a napan isuna iti tuktok ti turod nga awan iti kakaykayona.
4 And God came unto Balaam, —so he said unto him The seven altars, have I built in a row, and have caused to ascend, bullock and a ram on each altar.
Immay ti Dios kenkuana, ket kinuna ni Balaam iti Dios, “Nangbangonak iti pito nga altar, ket nangidatonak iti maysa a baka ken maysa a karnero iti tunggal maysa kadagitoy.”
5 And Yahweh put a word into the mouth of Balaam, —and said—Return unto Balak, and, thus, shalt thou speak.
Nangikabil ni Yahweh iti mensahe iti ngiwat ni Balaam ket kinunana, “Agsublika kenni Balak ket kasaritam isuna.”
6 So he returned unto him, and lo! he was stationed by his ascending-sacrifice, —he, and all the princes of Moab.
Nagsubli ngarud ni Balaam kenni Balak, a sitatakder iti abay ti datonna a naipuor, ken kaduana dagiti amin a pangulo ti Moab.
7 So he took up his parable and said, —From Aram, doth Balak conduct me, The king of Moab, from the mountains of the East, Come thou! curse me Jacob, Yea, come thou! rage on Israel.
Ket rinugian ni Balaam nga insao ti padtona ket kinunana, “Inkuyognak ni Balak manipud Aram. Ti ari ti Moab a naggapu kadagiti kabanbantayan iti daya. 'Umayka, ilunodmo ni Jacob para kaniak,' kinunana. 'Umaymo dupraken ti Israel.'
8 How can I revile one whom GOD hath not reviled? Yea, how can I rage on one on whom Yahweh hath not raged?
Kasanok nga ilunod dagiti saan nga inlunod ti Dios? Kasanok a supiaten dagiti saan a sinupiat ni Yahweh?
9 Surely from the head of the rocks, do I see him, Yea, from the hills, do I observe him, —Lo! a people, who alone doth dwell, And among the nations, he doth not reckon himself.
Ta manipud iti tuktok dagiti dadakkel a bato ket makitkitak isuna; manipud kadagiti katurturodan ket matantannawagak isuna. Kitaem, adda dita ti tattao nga agbibiag nga agmaymaysa ket saanda nga ibilang ti bagbagida a kas maysa laeng a gagangay a nasion.
10 Who hath counted the dust of Jacob? Or who hath numbered the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the upright, And let my hereafter be like his!
Siasino ti makabilang iti tapok ni Jacob wenno ti kakapat a bilang dagiti Israelita? Pumusayak koma a kas iti ipupusay ti nalinteg a tao, ket gibusam ti biagko kas kenkuana!”
11 Then said Balak unto Balaam, What hast thou done for me? To revile mine enemies, I summoned thee, and lo! thou hast kept on blessing.
Kinuna ni Balak kenni Balaam, “Ania daytoy nga inaramidmo kaniak? Inkuyogka tapno ilunodmo dagiti kabusorko, ngem adtoy, binendisionam ketdi ida.”
12 And he answered and said, —Was it not to be so that whatsoever Yahweh should put into my mouth, the same, should I take heed to speak?
Simmungbat ni Balaam ket kinunana, “Saan kadi a ti rumbeng nga ibagak ket dagiti laeng ikabil ni Yahweh iti ngiwatko?”
13 Then said Balak unto him—Come, I pray thee, with me unto another place, from whence thou mayest see him, nothing but his utmost part, shalt thou see, but all of him, shalt thou not see, —and so revile me him from thence.
Isu a kinuna ni Balak kenkuana, “Pangngaasim, kumuyogka kaniak iti sabali pay a lugar a pakakitaam kadakuada. Dagiti laeng asideg ti makitam kadakuada, saanmo ida a makita amin. Sadiay, ilunodmo ida para kaniak.”
14 And he took him to the field of Zophim, unto the head of Pisgah, —and built seven altars, and caused to ascend a bullock and a ram on each altar.
Isu nga inkuyog ni Balak ni Balaam iti tay-ak ti Zofim nga agturong iti tuktok ti Bantay Pisga, ket nangbangon manen isuna iti pito nga altar. Nangidaton isuna iti maysa a baka ken maysa a karnero iti rabaw ti tunggal altar.
15 Then said he to Balak, Station thyself here by thine ascending-sacrifice, —while, I, meet him yonder.
Kalpasanna, kinuna ni Balaam kenni Balak, “Agtakderka ditoy abay ti datonmo a naipuor, bayat ti pannakisarakko kenni Yahweh sadiay.
16 And Yahweh met Balaam, and put a word into his mouth, —and said—Return unto Balak and thus shalt thou speak.
Sinarak ngarud ni Yahweh ni Balaam ket inkabilna ti mensahe iti ngiwatna. Kinunana, “Agsublika kenni Balak ket itedmo ti mensahek kenkuana.”
17 So he came in unto him and, there he was-stationed by his ascending-sacrifice, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said unto him, What hath Yahweh spoken?
Nagsubli ni Balaam kenkuana, ket adtoy, agtaktakder isuna iti abay ti datonna a naipuor ken kaduana dagiti pangulo ti Moab. Ket kinuna ni Balak kenkuana, “Ania ti kinuna ni Yahweh?”
18 Then took he up his parable and said, —Rise, Balak, and hear, Give ear unto me son of Zippor!
Rinugian ni Balaam ti padtona. Kinunana, “Tumakderka Balak, ket dumngegka. Denggennak, sika nga anak a lalaki ni Sefor.
19 GOD is, not a man, that he should lie, Nor a son of Adam, that he should repent, —Hath, he, said, and will not perform? Yea spoken, and will not make it stand fast?
Saan a tao ti Dios tapno agulbod isuna. Wenno maysa a tao, tapno baliwanna ti kapanunotanna. Adda kadi inkarina a saanna a tinungpal? Adda kadi imbagana nga aramidenna a saanna a tinungpal?
20 Lo! to bless, have I received [command], —And I will bless, nor will I take it back.
Adtoy, nabilinak a mangbendision. Nangbendision ti Dios, ket saankon a mabaliwan daytoy.
21 He hath not discovered trouble in Jacob, Neither hath he seen wretchedness in Israel, —Yahweh, his God, is with him, And, the acclaim of a king, in his midst:
Awan ti nakitana a pakarigatan kenni Jacob wenno pakariribukan idiay Israel. Adda kadakuada ni Yahweh a Diosda, ket ipukpukawda gapu ta adda kadakuada ti arida.
22 GOD having brought them forth out of Egypt, The very horns of the buffalo, are his:
Impanaw ida ti Dios manipud iti Egipto nga addaan pigsa a kas iti atap a baka.
23 Surely, there is no enchantment against Jacob, Nor divination against Israel, —Now, shall it be said—Of Jacob and of Israel, What hath GOD wrought!
Awan gamud nga agballigi kenni Jacob, ken awan mammadto a mangdangran iti Israel. Kastoy ketdi ti maibaga kenni Jacob ken iti Israel, 'Kitaem ti inaramid ti Dios!'
24 Lo, a people, like a lioness, shall rise, And like a strong lion, shall rouse himself up; He will not lie down till he eat the torn, And the blood of the slain, he drink.
Adtoy, tumaktakder dagiti tattao a kas iti kabaian a leon, kas iti leon a kellaat nga agparang ket dumarup. Saan nga agidda agingga a makanna ti kinemmegna ken agingga a masepsepna ti dara ti napatayna.”
25 Then said Balak unto Balaam, Thou shalt neither revile, him, —nor bless him.
Ket kinuna ni Balak kenni Balaam, “Saanmo ida nga ilunod wenno bendisionan ni kaanoman.”
26 And Balaam responded, and said unto Balak, —Spake I not unto thee, saying, All that Yahweh shall speak, that, must I do?
Ngem simmungbat ni Balaam ket kinunana kenni Balak,” Saan kadi nga imbagak kenka a masapul nga ibagak ti amin nga ibagbaga ni Yahweh kaniak?
27 And Balak said unto Balaam, Come, I pray thee! let me take thee unto another place, —peradventure, it may be right in the eyes of God, that thou revile me him. from thence.
Ket insungbat ni Balak kenni Balaam, “Umaykan ta ikuyogka iti sabali pay a lugar. Nalabit a maay-ayonto ti Dios nga ilunodmo ida sadiay para kaniak.”
28 So Balak took Balaam, —unto the head of Peor, that looketh over the face of the Jeshimon.
Inkuyog ngarud ni Balak ni Balaam iti tuktok ti Bantay Peor, a pakatantannawagan iti let-ang.
29 And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here, seven altars, —and prepare me here, seven bullocks and seven rams.
Kinuna ni Balaam kenni Balak, “Ibangonannak iti pito nga altar ditoy ket isaganam ti pito a baka ken pito a karnero.”
30 And Balak did as Balaam said, —and caused to ascend a bullock and a ram on each altar.
Inaramid ngarud ni Balak ti imbaga ni Balaam; nangidaton isuna iti maysa a baka ken maysa a karnero iti rabaw ti tunggal altar.
